    Hey, I am writing to report an unexpected error I encountered while testing the REST API on my WordPress website.

    Upon testing the REST API, I received an unexpected result that I am unable to resolve. Below are the details of the issue:

    I have not been able to identify the root cause of the error. The “Bad Request” response prevents me from utilizing the REST API for essential functionalities.

    I kindly request your expert assistance in resolving this matter. As the REST API is integral to the smooth functioning of WordPress and its interactions with other applications, addressing this issue promptly is of utmost importance.

    If any specific details, logs, or further information are required from my end to assist in diagnosing and fixing this issue, please do not hesitate to let me know. Your guidance and support in resolving this matter will be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to your response and working towards a solution.

    What were you trying to do when you got that error? Attempting to edit a post type record via the API seems quite unusual. Even with proper authentication the expected response is 401 not allowed. A 400 response might be due to improper authentication, or some plugin or theme code is preventing the expected response.

    Even though “edit” is an accepted context, you cannot actually edit post type records through the API. You can only look. Post types need to be registered via PHP.
